STEAMING WITH THE VAROMA®
The Varoma® is an accessory designed for Thermomix® TM6 and is only to be
used with Thermomix® TM6. Before you can start steaming with the Varoma®,
you will need to set up your Thermomix® TM6 correctly.
1. Place the mixing bowl correctly into Thermomix® TM6.
2. Pour at least 0.5 litres (500 g) of water into the mixing bowl for up to 30
minutes' steaming.
For a flavoursome variation, you can use a vegetable stock or water-wine
mix instead of water.
3. If you steam with the simmering basket, insert the simmering basket (see
Simmering Basket
4. Close the mixing bowl with the mixing bowl lid.
5. Place the Varoma® lid upside down on your work surface and position the
Varoma® dish on top – it fits perfectly into the groove.
6. Now loosely fill the Varoma® dish with food.
7. Make sure that some slots remain unobstructed so that the steam can spread
evenly.
As you fill the Varoma®, make sure that you put the food requiring a longer
cooking time at the bottom (in the Varoma® dish) and food requiring a shorter
cooking time at the top (in the Varoma® tray).
